It is an aspartic acid protease having 2 aspartic acid residues in the active site. Ten Plm isoforms are known which are named Plm I, II, etc and Histo-Aspartic Protease (HAP). Proplasmepsin II exhibits a large shift between its domains which renders the protease inactive[1]. Relevance Plm is a potential target for anti-malaria drugs[2]. Structural highlights The active site of Plm II contains a [3]. . Water molecules are shown as red spheres.
